Maybe the original intention of letting the members raise pigs was good, but unfortunately it was crooked when I got to the village.

Wang Manyin is not clear in other places, but on this side of the Loess Plateau, when it comes to raising pigs, basically every household is worried.

Every year, there is a task and is sent to the production team, and the basic standard is to sell one pig for every two households. There is a reward for completing the work, but if it is not completed, the population grain of the peasant households will be deducted.

People who don't know how to raise pigs think that this thing just eats pigweed...... The countryside is full of weeds, and if you cut and feed them, you will raise a big fat pig at the end of the year.

How is it possible in reality, if you just feed pigweed, you won't grow fat at all.

After two or three years of feeding, it may not be enough to sell.

If you feed food...... When the green and yellow are not connected. There are not enough people to eat, let alone feed the pigs.

What's more, the price of hogs is dead.

The best special pig is only more than five cents a catty, and the third class is three cents and eight cents...... A pig can generally be sold for more than forty to eighty yuan.

If you want to feed a pig enough to fatten the scale, you need at least 100 catties of grain.

During this period, if the pig is sick, it is necessary to find a veterinarian, which is a big expense.

The cornmeal and sorghum flour in the black market can be sold for more than four cents a catty, and forty or fifty yuan for one hundred catties...... If you use this to feed pigs, it is equivalent to farmers working hard to raise pigs for a year, and they don't earn a penny.

The only good thing is probably that a lot of pig manure has fallen.

Of course, no farmer is willing to feed his pigs with coarse grains every day. Generally, it is brushed with pot water, bran, and some sweet potatoes and pigweed.

That's a good situation!

In the event that a pig dies of plague or other disease, the farmer's hard work for a year is in vain.

So over the years, the villagers of Jar Village have been very resistant to raising pigs. The earth-shattering sound of the mobilization meeting in the village received very little response.

Because of this, Zhao Jianhai deliberately came to the second team to urge the task.

Seeing that he didn't get a response for a long time, he reluctantly said: "The cadre is the leader, so be it...... The cadres of the production team must take the lead, and one person should bear a pig. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the honest man Wang Lianshun immediately choked: "I don't have the ability to take the lead, Director Zhao, there are so many benefits of raising pigs, so I can simply transfer my quota to you." ”

"That's it, Director Zhao, or you can set up a pig farm and take care of the tasks of our second team." Wang Yanqiang interjected.

He is the captain of the militia in the village and a member of the second team, so he is naturally reluctant to raise pigs.

Wang Manyin had already planned to go to the market to buy a piglet to raise in the New Year, but he didn't make a sound at the moment, and he was more willing to watch Zhao Jianhai make a fool of himself.

But the pig raised in his own space can keep up because of the feeding. It's like a balloon that blows up, inflating like crazy. In more than a month, it is now almost more than 60 pounds.

At this rate, it will be possible to kill and eat in two or three months at most.

There's a problem...... Not long ago, Wang Manyin heard from the people in the village that pigs must be fanned regardless of male and female, otherwise the meat will be eaten in a commotion.

But he clearly remembered that in later generations, he had heard a friend who raised pigs say that sows do not need to be instigated.

Wang Manyin didn't know who was right, but the sow cubs in the space couldn't find a veterinarian, so they could only be raised in a daze for the time being.

Seeing that his proposals were rejected one after another, Zhao Jianhai finally became embarrassed.

However, he didn't dare to deal with Wang Yanqiang, and only said to Wang Lian: "Second captain, what do you mean, 'There are no pigs that can't be raised, only people who can't be raised well', I think there is a problem with your position." ”

"Okay, I have a problem, just wipe me off. As this production captain, I am angry every day, and I don't want to do it. Wang Lianshun took the cigarette pot and knocked it on the ground.

He is a good-natured person, and usually tries to keep a bowl of water even. can be a production captain for a few years, but he still hasn't done well. Every once in a while, I was approached by the members of the club and clamored for a job increase.

Other production teams basically change their captains every year.

The second team is evil, and when I saw someone arguing, no one was willing to stick out their heads.

Wang Lianshun originally wanted to resign, but finally found an opportunity.

In a word, Director Zhao was dumbfounded.

It was Wang Fugui who pulled a hand: "Uncle Lian Shun, what are you doing here, resign at every turn, our second team is convinced of you, and the production captain will do it." ”

"There's a, I'll leave it here. If any of you want to raise your hand, I will step down immediately. Wang Lianshun replied angrily.

"Okay, Brother Lian Shun, let's have a meeting to discuss things, or continue to discuss the issue of pig raising. I have a proposal, Director Zhao, you don't think it's okay. If you raise pigs, you can use a few more points of land as pig feed, anyway, there is a lot of wasteland in the second team. ”

Hearing this, all the members of the club had hope in their eyes.

There are ditches and slopes outside the jar village, and there are a lot of scattered wastelands. It's just that the area is too small, and most of them are divided into two parts. The production team was unable to organize manual farming, and private cultivation was not allowed, so it was abandoned. If these plots are divided among the members, a lot of grain can be harvested.

"No, it's a mistake, you can't do it." Zhao Jianhai shook his head resolutely.

"So what do you say? Let's all keep our mouths shut and not eat, feed the pigs hungry, and raise one head per acre? Wang Fugui said sarcastically.

Wang Manyin can see that Zhao Jianhai is really unpopular in Jar Village.

Everyone has a rod scale in their hearts.

Several cadres of the production team, none of them spoke to him.

Actually, it's understandable...... The other cadres are all villagers of Jar Village, and they are villagers in the township, so they naturally have to consider the village.

However, Zhao Jianhai usually has no skills except for singing high-pitched, and has never solved problems for the village.

"This is the mission, and you two teams must complete it without compromise. Since one pig per acre of land cannot be reached, according to the minimum standard, two households are divided into one and the members are free to combine. I will make a decision tonight, and whoever dares to refuse will hold a meeting in the village to take a roll call. If not, report it to the commune......"

Zhao Jianhai said cruelly.

Before tonight's meeting, he thought that he had done a lot of preparatory work, and he even brought a newspaper with him to tell everyone about the good situation.

Originally, I wanted the second team to report a few more pigs to add some highlights to their work, and maybe they would evaluate an advanced production team in the commune when the time came.

I didn't expect to touch a nose of ash, and people didn't pee on him at all.

Zhao Jianhai simply decided not to discuss it anymore and directly pressed people with his identity.

Sure enough, hearing what the other party said, the members of the second team were silent.

"Wang Lianshun, you are the captain of the second team, take the lead, and which one will you combine to raise a pig?" Zhao Jianhai directly called names.

"Let's go with my eldest brother." Wang Lianshun replied helplessly.

He was able to serve as the captain of the second team, not only because of his good temper and convincing, but also because of his three brothers.

"Wang Fugui, what about you......"

Zhao Jianhai was named one by one.

When it was Wang Manyin's turn, he discussed it with Wang Qiusheng. There is a quota for two families, but it is raised by their own family.

For this, Wang Qiusheng is naturally grateful.

Zhao Jianhai also knew that what he did was not welcomed by the villagers, so after arranging the task, he hurriedly got up and left.

Waiting for the other party to leave, Wang Yanqiang pursed his lips: "At this level, even Sun Yuting of Shuangshui Village is not as good." People also know how to catch paper eggs to solve problems. ”

In his words, he was quite disdainful.

But that's all he can say.

When it came to Sun Yuting, the younger brother of Wang Manyin's father-in-law, many villagers laughed.

The pig task in Shuangshui Village is also not easy to complete, so Sun Yuting thought of a "high trick", asking one person from each household to catch paper eggs, and whoever catches it raises pigs.

Sun Yuting has a very bad idea, and he can "catch" a pig almost every year, and when he goes back, he is scolded by his mother-in-law and aunt.

This matter has spread, and the eight villages in ten miles know about it.

However, Wang Yanqiang is right, Zhao Jianhai's level is really not good. Even if you let the members catch the paper eggs, it is much better than forcibly apportioning them.

At least pay attention to luck, so that the members have an expectation in their hearts.

"Adjournment, dispersal, what's the use of talking about this now." Wang Lianshun didn't talk nonsense anymore, and waved everyone away.

When he got home, Wang Manyin told his daughter-in-law that he planned to raise pigs.

Orchid didn't object, just nodded and said: "Well, Manyin, don't worry, our pigs will be handed over to me in the future, and I will fight pigweed every day!" ”

The two of them gossiped a few words, then turned off the lights and went to sleep.

As a result, when Wang Manyin got up in the morning, he heard an urgent shout outside.

"Brother Wang, haven't you gotten up, hurry up, something big has happened in the village."

It was Liu Xiangyang's voice.
